The
Hawker Hunter was the United Kingdom's most successful
post-war military aircraft. Designed by Sir Sydney Camm, the
prototype first flew in 1951.
The Hunter was replaced in the day fighter role in
1963 by the English Electric Lightning; however, continued on in
various roles. The last variant, the T.8M was introduced
as late as 1979.
The Hunter also did well as an export and was
operated by the air arms of 19 countries. A simple aircraft
with almost 2,000 built, many are still in flying condition. |
